What We Do
We are at the heart of the UK’s renewables revolution helping to realise our collective goal of net zero emissions through the deployment of solar energy.
We believe this is best achieved through positive stakeholder relationships and listening to the voices of the community.
Our Vision
Our vision is to power the UK with reliable, affordable, clean solar energy, and to add value through innovation and investment.
We’re bringing the benefits of solar energy to communities and the planet – at the scale and pace that is needed to help the country meet its net zero ambitions.
Our projects
Our 98% planning application success rate over the last decade speaks for itself. We remain committed to using the lessons we have learned in this time to continue delivering large-scale solar farms with co-located battery storage and biodiversity net gains on every project.
All our future solar schemes will achieve a minimum 50% biodiversity net gain, five times the minimum requirement of 10%.
Since 2012, our team has secured planning permission in the UK and Ireland for more than 1GW of solar projects, ranging from 30 to 150 megawatts. This is the equivalent of providing energy to over 265,000 homes.
We work closely with local people to shape the future of our projects and to ensure the benefits of solar energy developments are realised in a way that positively impacts local people, through community benefits funds and significant investment in green infrastructure.
Working with communities
Working in partnership with local communities to unlock a project’s full potential is at the heart of what we do. Our work with local people shapes the future of our projects and ensures the benefits of solar energy developments are realised in a way that positively impacts them.
We pride ourselves on listening to, and knowing the communities we work with by prioritising our understanding of local sentiment. We listen to, and build relationships with, the people, organisations, and stakeholders we work with, to understand their views and accommodate change where possible, helping to leave a positive legacy behind when our work is complete.
